That's about where I am. I'm spending my rainy/dreary day watching old Japanese monster movies while playing TriForce Heroes (damn time challenges!).
Running out the clock. Kinda glad that I skipped the debate and slept through it instead.
It comes from hilary supporters screwing the truth as they do. it also comes from bitterness. Hilarious trying to make bernie look bad for visiting the vatican while campaigning in new york while Clinton abandoned NY and is currently in California sipping with her big money fundraisers as she does.
I'm college Sachs had a cult of people following him at every turn. I never took his classes because there were like 900000 English / environmental science / other useless degree seniors waiting for the lottery system to open when I was busy registering for econometrics or statistics in financial engineering. Whatever :nailpaint

The timing of Bernie's Vatican speech couldn't have been more inspired, as on the other side of the Atlantic, at Hillary's fundraiser, you would have payed $353k to sit at the head table with George Clooney, which could have possibly paid for Bernie's whole trip.
The positive press coverage alone, such as from USA Today, made the trip well worth it:
P.S. I'm the real-life Gordon Gekko and I support Bernie Sanders, by Asher Edelman, writing in The Guardian on Tuesday, April 12th.
Just a quick word of advice: posting here as a Sanders supporter is like posting on reddit as a Hillary supporter. Neither is generally worth the headache.
Or The View!

Looking forward to Sanders dominating the upcoming Holy See primary 🙄

It's called helping get money for down ballot Democrats, you know, what you need for an actual revolution

Let me tell you, it's not at all. I've been taking abuse for the last few weeks because I've been kind of bored, and nothing on GAF comes even close. It's the Wild West on Reddit, of blatant racism, sexism and absolutely blathering nonsense.
There's absolutely no reason to believe this. Every bit of data would suggest Bernie is going to lose by double digits.
Those big money fundraisers are the only reason Bernie Sanders has a platform to exploit in order to shit-talk the party that he would need to get anything accomplished if, by some catastrophic event, he won the nomination.
So, is the Pope lying? Because from his comments it sure sounds like Bernie was basically waiting for him in the hallway to come out of some sort of meeting so that they could meet and shake hands.
I'm quite opposed to capital punishment, but I think we're a ways off from being able to actually get rid of it. Not a fan of Hillary's enthusiasm about it, not sure if she is being "tough" or if she really thinks it's right.
I guess when he is president he will never set foot into the senate or congress
There has been some weird decisions

Who? How?
Hey Suikoguy. Guess what. He met with the pope. Hey suikoguy, guess who said the quote that the pope invited him. One guess. It wasn't bernie.

The way they met, he had no idea he was going to meet them.
Unless the plan was to camp out and ambush him.

Sounds to me like your beef is with Joy Behar, not Bernie.
I'm not sure he meant he was going to be passing him in the hallway.
In ha defense, Joy is a total mean girl.

Lol I just like that he threw up the pointer and "And let me be clear" right at the start.
So used to seeing it in debates but in the context of a day time talk show it's like a SNL skit.

What is the "Will of the People" if not the person who has the single most votes of any candidate of either race?

You understand they were at the same meeting right? You understand it wan't a lot of people in that room yes? I think he had an idea he was going to meet him, and guess what, he did.

His gamble paid off... sorta.
Paid off as it was not a total failure.
Did not pay off as he will still lose the primary.

Uhhh, I'm pretty sure you have no idea what you are talking about
Lol. Bush said he'd give us 4% growth. Cruz saying he would give us 5%+ by cutting taxes on the rich.
Someone isn't paying attention to Kansas.

Or they are and ted just wants to run the US into the ground and establish a theocracy.

I wouldn't argue that. My issue is with the behavior of specific individuals. I wouldn't paint all of them with a brush.
I've posted specifically on these matters before. Nothing results from it that is at all conclusive. I'll just PM specific people on the forum staff about it when I gather the posts together.

I met Jill Biden at my community college in the lead-up to the 2012 election so that was pretty cool. Even got to shake her hand.
Other than that I've also met Franken and Klobuchar.

Honestly, this is a ridiculous thing to go on about. He was invited the vatican and given a platform to speak to the pope. He knew his speech was going to be in the same small room with the pope.

I guess "Will of the People" has turned into "Will of the Internet"?
If you have the most voters and most pledged delegates what other possible verified metric could you win?
Start with your own bro.

It's really eye opening how many people conflate "will of the people" with "whatever I happen to want and support"
They were never at a meeting together. Bernie waited in the lobby of the residence as the Pope was leaving for a trip so he could shake the Pope's hand and talk for 5 minutes.
The bolded is factually incorrect.
How rude! Shinra makes great posts.

I met with Hillary Clinton twice. We discussed the intricacies of voter outreach. She, personally, thanked me for my service to the Party. It was a good meeting.
Queen literally said thank you to a group of us.....still, it counts?
And, speaking for all Hillary supporters everywhere, no one gives two cares that Bernie went to the Vatican. Here's why it's funny (Sad, not ha! ha!)
1) He's down 10-17 points in a state he can't afford to win by less than 10! So, he takes two days off the trail to go to an academic conference at the Vatican.
2) This was political. Which is fine. He's a politician. But, my god, if Hillary had done it, we'd never hear the damn end about how she's trying to pander to the Catholic vote. And it definitely was political because he used campaign contributions to pay for it.
3) I take issue with what I perceive to be a bit of morally wiff-waffing here. The Pope is currently loved by Bernie supporters because they share a similar (on paper) focus on economic injustice. HOWEVER, if Queen was "meeting" with someone who shared the Pope's views on LGBT rights, abortion, and women's rights, she'd be getting draaaaggged by her perfectly coiffed weave.
4) HOW IS THE VATICAN NOT THE EPITOME OF ESTABLISHMENT!?
5) I still hate that damn bird.

I think many just cannot come to terms with the fact that the US as a whole just isn't as liberal as they want it to be.
Which, I admit, is quite frustrating, but to deny that an actual vote is not the will of the people isn't intelligent.

I'm gonna take a short break because it's pretty obvious that I'm coming very close to the wrong side of a blurry line here.
